Beatrice Kahl
Already as a 12 year old girl I was taught to play both the keyboard and the basspedals (analogous the Stummelpedal by Eko) by a visiting musician friend of my father's.This keyboard with bass pedals always accompanying my father and brother on gigs and soon I arrived at a considerable ability on the instrument, which I later expanded on my Hammond A-100, built in the 1960s.
At 100 kilos the A-100 always required help to move and so I am delighted to have the Hammond XK-5, an instrument that does not compromise on technique but, on the contrary, with its big sound and A1 keyboard feel, represents a true inspiration for my playing, and I can carry it, set it up and break it down, alone!!
The nationwide concertizing pianist, keyboard and organist has occupied herself for many years principally with Jazz, Latin, Soul and Pop music. Along side her various studio work with, for instance, Thilo Wolf Big Band, John Davis, Melva Houston, Marquess and Joo Kraus, she greatly enjoys performing live with, among many others, Thomas Quasthoff, Chris de Burgh, Emma Lanford, Max Mutzke, Joan Faulkner, David A. Tobin. The touring has brought her, among other places, to Michigan (USA), to Switzerland and to France, where she performed often with the Béatrice Kahl & Gaby Schenke project, "NDW meets JAZZ".
Since the year 2000, Béatrice Kahl has acted as pianist, keyboard player, chorus Repetitor and MD supporter for various theatre productions at the Staatsschauspiel Hannover, TFN (Theater für Niedersachsen), Thalia Theater Hamburg, Stadttheater Fürth. It was there that she met the actress singer Elke Wollmann, with whom she performed the highly successful song evening "Hommage an Edith Piaf", after which followed several TV appearances on BR-alpha and 3-Sat in der Abendschau, on the New Year's Eve program of the Bayerischen Rundfunks with "Thilo Wolf & Friends" etc..
In February 2017, she premiered her second successful program, "Billie, Edith und Marlene". Soon after moving from North to South Germany in 2010, she became the permanent pianist of the Munich combo, "String of Pearls". In her own bands, "b.groovy" and "funky swirl" (an organ band), made up of highly skilled musicians from Munich, Hannover and Nuernberg, she combined her most important musical influences from Pop to Jazz and, in doing so, she fulfilled her fondest desire to rearrange Pop Hits in a jazz-soul format.

Rob Mostert
Rob Mostert (Born in 1965) is one of The Netherlands' top Hammond players, a true purist, one of the few to play the footbass with his (bare) feet. At an early age he was introduced to the soul jazz of Jimmy Smith and fell in love with the sound of the Hammond. A music career was inevitable and after graduating Hammond organ at the Conservatory, Rob played in different bands, meanwhile continuing to develop himself as a passionate Hammond performer.In 2010, inspired by his heroes Jimmy Smith, Jimmy McGriff, Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Rob recorded his debut album at the Englewood Cliffs Studios with Blue Note legend Rudy Van Gelder. He traveled to New Jersey with his Hammond quartet and returned with 'Englewood Cliffs Sessions' a traditional Hammond soul/jazz album that was appreciated by Hammond fans all over the world. Rudy Van Gelder, 86 at that time, commented in the liner notes: "This session was unusual, the musicians came from The Netherlands, but the music comes from here, from the Blue Note tradition that I helped create in my studio".
For follow up album 'Go Big Or Go Home' (2013), Rob took it a step further and added a groovy horn section to his band. The new sound was a funky mix of soul/jazz and sexy Memphis soul that not only worked well in the studio but also contributed to the band's live reputation. One of the highlights was the invitation to perform 4 shows at the Rochester International Jazz Festival, Rochester NY US.
His 7-piece Rob Mostert Hammond Group is Rob's base for new ventures and collaborations. In 2018 the tour 'Sex, Hammond & Rock'n Roll' runs. The band includes some of the finest musicians around, all with proven international potential and a spectacular sound.

"The vintage Hammond organ is the only instrument in the world with a real heart.
For me the sound of the Hammond goes straight to the heart, maybe that's why I see the Hammond as a living creature. It's snorring, and screaming like a real beast.
With the modern Hammond organs like the XK-5 I have the same feeling, it feels and plays like the good old vintage Hammond legends.
True passion is to know what you don't want to give up before you got it. To me that passion is making music and performing with my Hammond."
Camille Goellaen
Born in 1996, Camille Goellaen, known as "Organ Fury," draws inspiration from legendary organists like Jon Lord, Keith Emerson, and Vincent Crane. These iconic musicians, known for their groundbreaking contributions to rock and progressive music, have deeply influenced Camille's approach to the organ.From Jon Lord's powerful and versatile organ playing with Deep Purple to Keith Emerson's boundary-pushing innovation in Emerson, Lake & Palmer, and Vincent Crane's distinctive style in The Crazy World of Arthur Brown and Atomic Rooster, Camille finds inspiration in their pioneering techniques and fearless experimentation.
Their influence resonates in his performances and compositions, infusing his music with elements of grandeur, technical prowess, and a fearless spirit of exploration. Camille pays homage to their legacies while carving his unique path, blending the echoes of these organ masters into his own signature style, creating captivating and
dynamic musical experiences.
He plays or played in bands such as Moundrag, Komodrag and the Mounodor, Smooth Motion...
"Hammond is like the extension of myself, highly expressive and massive sounding. You immediately recognize the sound and the soul of the Hammond Organ !"
Pate Kivinen
Pate found the nasty, growl and glorious sound of Hammond-organ by listening his big brother's vinyls: The Spencer Davis Group, Nazareth, Uriah Heep, Procol Harum and the one and the only Deep Purple. He discovered the sound and the style of playing the Hammond-organ to follow is mr. Jon Lord!With Pate's childhood's cheap home-organ he found the solution for practising: combining Walz- and March-rhythm on the organ's drum machine gave a nice heavyrock double bassdrum-rhythm for learning more Deep Purple tunes.
Pate joined to his first band on age of 13. At the same year his band won the local band contest with a nice trio: drums, guitar/vocal and organ/bass.
After playing in a couple of bands he joined hardrock/prog-band "Five Fifteen" for 16 years. This educational journey to the magical world of music by Yes, Journey, The Beatles, Led Zeppelin and The Who gave him a solid hardrock base allowing Pate to invited to huge Finnish legends: "Hanoi Rocks". As a "hired gun of keyboards" he travelled with the guys around the world for four years.
Legendary Finnish band Popeda was founded in 1977 in Tampere, Central Finland. At the beginning band's sound was punk-oriented but soon they found the real Popeda-sound; good feeling and heavy hi-energy boogie-rock. Today Popeda is one of the biggest band in Finland and enjoys huge popularity. In 2017 this five-member band is celebrating its 40th anniversary with an extensive tour.
"The sound, the look and the feel of playing were all the things which make me felt in love with Hammond-organs. From the smooth, jazzy and silky nighclub-blues to the wallbreakin' hardrock-scream… all that from the same organ!
The new XK-5 is a killer.
I just can't imagine myself to be in the studio or on the road without it!"
Frank Montis
Frank Montis grew up in a music-loving family. Frank was exposed to the sounds, groove and feel of the hammond greats at an early age. After working as a session musician and playing with a piano trio for a couple of years he was asked to record Hammond organ and vocals on a track of the Dutch formation 'The Jazzinvaders'.For some time Frank had been writing his own poppy/jazzy songs in the background and due to his collaboration with 'The Jazzinvaders' he met saxophone player Rolf Delfos and they started a group called 'DelMontis' in 2010. Before releasing their first album in 2011 Frank started playing with the Dutch group 'The Soul Snatchers' and 'Laura Vane & The Vipertones' with the UK based soul and funk singer Laura Vane, which resulted in a couple of albums with Frank on vintage keys and the organ of course.
In September 2011 'Straightforward Fasciation' by DelMontis was released with Frank's songs, vocals, keys and a guest appearance of Laura Vane on the title track and early 2014, Frank was asked to join the well-known Dutch group 'Gare Du Nord' as co-composer and keyboardist. In the meantime Frank's fascination with the Hammond organ has grown to a level where he feels that he wants to specialize in mainly playing the organ, mixing the groove and feel of the music he grew up with and other influences he was exposed to, throughout his life.
In 2019 his main group is an organ trio called 'Montis, Goudsmit & Directie' (www.montisgoudsmitdirectie.com) while still performing with 'DelMontis' occasionally and working a another hammond group called 'Spark' (www.sparktheband.com). Both groups are working on new releases. Stay tuned...

"I am extremely honored to be a part of the Hammond family. The sound and soul of Hammond instruments are second to none. I remember during the time I wrote my master's degree thesis on the Hammond organ, it was a dream of mine to one day be connected with Hammond as an artist and now that dream has come true."
Quint Vullings
His Hammond Story starts off with his growing love for 'vintage' at the age of fifteen. He went out to the nearest record store that still sold vinyl, and bought a second-hand copy of the album "Shades of Deep Purple", by Deep Purple. He had been playing the piano since he was eleven years old, but never really heard an actual Hammond organ. That was until he put on the record on his pickup, and heard the immense vocabulary of sounds that emerged from the Hammond organ, played by Jon Lord. This moment was a turning point in his life, because since then he never stopped looking for the best Hammond sound.This search started at his old stage piano. The samples sounded a bit like what he heard on the record, but didn't really get close. After a while of searching he found a keyboard that had actual drawbars, like the Hammond, but wasn't an actual Hammond. He bought it, and managed to get to know the drawbar system and the basics of playing the organ.
After many gigs using that keyboard he noticed an ad on the Dutch Hammond Club site. It was a Hammond L100P, together with a Leslie 760. This would later become his first step to being an actual Hammond player. But the thing is, once he got the taste of the real thing, he never stopped wanting to get more from this golden combination. Eventually, an M-3 made its way into the setup, and after that an actual Leslie 147. He felt like his setup was finally complete.
In the meantime, he never stopped meeting bright personalities and wonderful people, all of them part of the Hammond scene, in his/her own way. Someone who's worth noting here, though, is Pascal Lanslots. Pascal has taught him a lot of the things he needed to know about playing the Hammond Organ, and he kept going out of his way to create great, inspiring opportunities for Quint, so he could better develop himself as an artist.
Thanks to Pascal, and numerous other connections he was introduced to the wonderful people of Hammond Europe and Musifix. And suddenly he found himself being an actual Hammond Artist, at the age of 17, with a brand new XK-5 ready to hit the road with his band Sheverine (and others, of course)
The Hammond had planted this idea of what his sound should be in his head, through an old, dusty record. And because of this, he developed a strong love for the instrument, and everything a 'Hammond Organ' means.
Only recently he got to record an EP with his band Sheverine, and thanks to Hammond Europe and Musifix he was able to use the XK-5, together with the Leslie 3300WP in the studio. According to Hammond, Sheverine was the first band ever to use this combination on an EP.
What is he doing now? He's studying 'keys' at the Rock City Institute and writing/performing as much as possible. Come and see him at one of his gigs!
"Hammond. A community as diverse as the instrument itself and a legacy that goes back to the early 19th century. This, plus its great feel and so many ways to define your sound makes it a truly inspiring instrument with a real soul."
You have to play it to feel it, you must feel it to be a player....
The XK-5 System is our modular organ-system with the appearance of a classic B-series Hammond.
The basic system consists of the single manual XK-5 together with the lower keyboard-kit XLK-5. Additionally you have a choice in various stands, benches and pedals to customize your setup.
